Quote:

He also seems to write 'R且' for 而且. I might be seeing that wrong, would be a really
interesting abbreviation, never seen that before!

Iit never comes to me that I can use R for 而. It sounds neat and concise!
However, it's not R he writes. It's the right part of 歡.

You're right, I did see it wrong then. I kind of expected that :-)

Is "老外“ miswritten as “若外” in the letter？

That's what I thought when I first looked at it, too. But if you look closely, you will see that
it's only the two bottom strokes meeting where they shouldn't.

This is fun...people need to post more letters with poor handwriting so we can all do this again!










Lu -

Don't know what your standards are, but I don't consider that bad handwriting at all. We're only
misreading it because we're a bunch of foreigners not used to Chinese handwriting.
But it was nice picking it apart all the same :-)

I would imagine that that is not his actual handwriting though. This looks as if he slowed down
because the addressee was a foreign friend (for once this word makes sense).

The handwriting is very good.

Regarding 'R且' , I have seen 'G肉三明治' in Taipei and I liked it a lot.

I agree. I think he purposely made it easy to read - it looks like it was written by a child.

I don't think so. But it doesn't matter.
